Featuring a non-reference design, the high performance heatpipes keep the GPU temperatures low when running in idle and under load. The included 92mm fan is designed to operate under extreme load conditions.

Well, btarunr you post it then figure it out, don't you proof read your own stuff?

And WOW Club is stupid not to differentiate this from a 7870, I mean why wouldn’t you want to make it appear to make a clear distinction. It’s got Boost, and then just the 2Gb on 256-Bit... So is this a Tahiti LE what the shader count?

It’s got Boost, more Shaders, but then just the 2Gb on 256-Bit dang-it. I’d rather had the 384-Bit with 2Gb the extra Shaders and no Boost, as I would want to OC anyway...
I hope other AIB’s do it different, but I don’t think so.

Nope here's the "News" page and it is saying " powered by 1536 Stream Processors". So it has to be the Tahiti LE, but I'd say it being slapped on a on a Pitcairn PCB (but how they work the Boost?), not a Tahiti board and what would offer a more robust power section.

210w powertune? So we can infer 175w TDP stock...exact same as 660ti (after tdp boost or whatever it's called)...ick for stock efficiency if that's true. That said, stock voltage is prolly through the damn roof like 7950 BE so they can use as many chips as possible.

Probably performs close to a stock 660ti at stock 670 power for 660 price, if you want a flat comparison. Shows that amd could sure use a chip 75% the size of tahiti, that's for sure.

With 210w though (7870 is 170w max...7950 200w...7950 BE 225w) it should overclock pretty darn well given the lower utilization of shaders, less ram, and disabled mem controllers versus even 7950 Original Gangsta edition.

At the end of the day, sounds like what we thought it would be...A cheaper alternative to the 660ti that probably performs similar stock/overclocked but uses more power.

The most interesting stand out from this evaluation has been the NVIDIA GTX 660 Ti, which is priced significantly higher than the Radeon HD 7870 while turning in similar performance numbers. The GTX 660 Ti has lost its value at this point in time, lending way to the Radeon HD 7950 which has benefited from falling prices and new drivers.
